Does anyone know anything about this outfit? They're primarily into 1:32 slot cars but have announced that they're going to make a model of just about every Pegaso model in 1:43 resin. Should be of interest to a few on this forum....
I guess the pics are of the slot car versions judging by the driver figures; I would hope the 1:43 versions were a little more precise.
I can't read the details of the individual cars, but I hope they include the 1953 Le Mans cars. From what I've read, two Z102s were entered, but Juan Jover crashed this one heavily during practice and was killed. Pegaso then withdrew the other entry. Is this the middle car in the bottom row ?
At Spark type prices I'd add one.....at HPI prices I probably won't.

Some information about these 'Pegasines': They´ll be made by IBB, distribuitor of slot cars in Spain. They haven´t release date yet, but it´s supposed they release between 4 or 6 references per year at 60-65 euros. Figures not included ( ).

So, priced around the same level as Neo makes them pretty affordable - I'll definitely be up for quite a few of these.

I'll need to start saving for next year's additions!
Just received an answer from IBB about a question that I sent them by email. Here you have:
QUOTE Hola,
Por ahora no tengo ninguna información al respecto, solo te puedo indicar que si se habló de ello, pero todavía no hay nada cerrado ni previsto. En cuanto tengamos mas información al respecto, se anunciará en los diferentes foros de esta especialidad así como en nuestra futura web de Top Slot.
Saludos cordiales.
Att,

So, I can resume for all of you is that they don't have any concrete proyect, just a little talk among the company member a and Pegaso Club. But they will be giving information about in their web and specialized forums.
I'd love to see them modelled! Only one for me at the moment (Thrill) and hopefully the quality could be according to the price and current resin model standards.

My concept car 1:43 collection: viewtopic.php?t=1096
As far as I know, one friend collector from www.foroescala43.net told me that IBB is not going to release yet their Pegasos in 1/43 as they are releasing them in 1/32 as slot cars.
Also, as Paulius says, they maybe have found a strong competition with Neo first, and Matrix & Esval with their announcements. We must wait...
